I often have interesting conversations with A that would force me to think deeply and reflect on my life. Some of them are enlightening, some of them are reflections, some are lessons, some are silly, and some are stories. In my recent convo with A on the topic of nightmares <  don’t ask me how we got to this topic, it is one of the things he does before he goes to bed. Come up with questions – love his curious mind >.  I don’t know how he has time to think about these things, let alone list them in some order and give them ratings. I'm in my 40’s – I don’t think I can rate my favorite food 😊 <Mama trying to BRAG > Here it goes in his words and it is ordered by worst nightmare to least worst :)  Being chased by a 10-foot metal robot – A green pig controls the robot Time traveling to the age of dinosaurs - wasn’t an ideal dream A world with just vegetables – A world without chickens, steak, pork, or fish.

10 days of gratitude - 1. My Anxiety

I’m planning to write about 10 things that I’m grateful for.. that's everyday until Christmas. First one in the list is My  Anxiety   There was a time , you were totally invisible to me, I never noticed you even existed, That’s when I was young and carefree! Then came a phase in my life, I know you existed; I didn’t give a thought to know your name, I was too focused on my situation, All I know was, you were giving me sleepless nights.. Then came a phase I was curious to know your name, but I was already in the process of managing you. I had a "plan of attack", I looked for ways to   help me overcome you, I won’t say I’m completely under control, But I’m handling you better!! I’m thankful for my friends who helped me on this process. I’m glad I know my triggers to anxiety otherwise I wouldn't have known myself. I’m grateful for those sleepless nights that helped me re-discover myself....
